In a groundbreaking moment for Nigerian music, globally acclaimed Afrobeat icons, Burna Boy and Tems are set to make history on May 1, 2023, by becoming the first Nigerian artists to grace the illustrious MetGala event in New York.
Joining them on this momentous occasion is none other than the sensational Celia crooner, Tiwa Savage.
While Savage will be performing at the event, Burna Boy and Tems have been invited as esteemed guests, adding to the already impressive lineup of luminaries that will be in attendance.
